Grygonos,

This information I am about to give to you is probably not what you're looking for, but...

Would you like to try a better, cheaper, more robust database engine? If so please click on any link that I have provided!!! It slices, It dices, and it drives the poorer preforming, yet more expensive competition into the Ground!!! And the best news yet, it official supports its own Perl api!!!

Seriously though. MySql is supported for Windows 2000, it is opensource with GPLicense, and seems to be PerlHacker Database of Choice.

PS. It is a real database engine, not a wanna be ...what ever the hell Access wants to be...
